Written by E2JORL From the Home Office at the bottom of a pile of sand though an hourglass... Top Ten changes if the Star Trek franchise became a Soap Opera, uh excuse me, "Daytime Drama" 10) Riker discovers he has an exact double who becomes a terrorist and lands in jail... Hey, that actually happened.. 9) Tom Paris replaced by Charlie from "All My Children"... Whoops, that one happened too... 8) All the women are good looking, thin, have perfect hair at all times, and wear really tight clothing... Well, I guess that already applies too... 7) Captain Janeway replaced by Mary from "Ryan's Hope"... Gee, I think I'm detecting a pattern here... 6) Kirk finds any excuse to strip down to his bare chest... Oh, man! That already happens.. 5) Vorick wants B'Elanna. B'Elanna doesn't want Vorick. Tom wants B'Elanna. B'Elanna sort of wants Tom. Vorick tries to get B'Elanna. B'Elanna tries to get Tom. B'Elanna fights Vorick. B'Elanna tells Tom to be careful what he wishes for... Aw, nuts, this list just isn't working out... 4) Beverly falls in love with a ghost in a really cheesy Gothic Romance plotline... Rats! I can't win!... 3) That cad Worf takes up with Jadzia without even a thought to poor Deanna... Damn! Not again!... 2) Kira has to carry Miles and Keiko's unborn child even though the baby is really Sid's... On second thought, I don't think even a Soap Opera would try this one!... And the Number One change if the Star Trek franchise became a Soap Opera... 1) Riker marries Laura from "General Hospital"... Uh, let's forget I even started this one!... From the Home Office "Out there...Thataway!"... Top Ten unseen improvements to the Sovereign class Enterprise-E 10) Crew members' transporter use now accrues Frequent Flyer Miles 9) "Magic Eye" 3-D pictures in all crew quarters 8) Shag carpeting in Engineering 7) Random artificial gravity shutdowns- "Just For Fun" 6) "Ten Backward" 5) "Mr. Worf, set phasers to 'tickle'." 4) Jeffries tubes now one giant maze...First crew member to find way to Stellar Cartography wins a pony! 3) Counselor Troi equipped with "unlimited access"...if you know what I mean... 2) Toilets And the Number One unseen improvement to the Sovereign class Enterprise-E... 1) Foos Ball!! From the Home Office on Mulberry Street... Top Ten lines of dialogue if Star Trek had been written by Dr. Seuss 10) COMPUTER SCAN: "One Ship. Two Ship. Red Ship. Blue Ship." 9) PICARD: "The Grinch has stolen our Christmas. He has taken our fun. And I will make him pay For what he has done!" 8) SPOCK: "The needs of the many Outweigh the needs of the few. Just keep that in mind Next time you feel blue!" 7) O'BRIEN: "Captain! Captain! A ship! A ship! Dukat is on another trip! He is wearing his new hat! Yes, Captain, Dukat in the hat came back!" 6) JANEWAY: "From near to far, From here to there, Strange things that glow and throb. We're Starfleet officers, Mr. Kim. Weird is part of the job!" 5) KIRK: "Tribbles, Tribbles everywhere! Tribbles, Tribbles in my hair! Over Tribbles I might trip, Get these Tribbles off my ship!" 4) KHAN: "He tasks me and I shall have him! I shall chase him in a plane! I shall chase him on a train! I shall chase him on a boat! I shall chase him with a goat!" 3) SPOCK: "Captain, please don't shoot That angry Horta! She's just protecting her eggs, Like a good mother orta!" 2) MARTOK: "Ouch! That hurt! You cut out my eye! Perhaps today IS A good day to die!" And the Number One line of dialog if Star Trek had been written by Dr. Seuss... 1) PICARD: "I do so love Tea, Earl Grey, hot! I do so love it! Thanks a lot!" USFTshirt: The Next Generation Written by: USFLynx Greetings fellow USFers. :) I'm thinking about making another USF T-shirt, and I'd like to get some ideas from everyone. If you're interested, please take a few moments to fill out the questionnaire. If there is enough interest, then I will try and put something in to production. 1. What type of designs should go on the shirt? - attach any graphics that you have 2. What color of shirt would you like? - some colors might not be available 3. How much should the shirt cost? - my opinion is $10, put down what you think you could afford - this is all non-profit, so if we spend more, we'll get more 4. Are there any other styles you would like to see? - examples: polo, henley, button up, denim, hooded sweater, etc. - anything other then a t-shirt is sure to be more expensive 5. Please comment on the following design ideas: 1. A USF Logo on the front upper left chest. The back would have all current USF members names scattered about in a really cool space scene. The top back would read "United Space Federation 1998". 2. A USF Logo on the front upper left chest. The back would have a really cool space scene (to be decided upon). Thanks for your time :) Lynx ^,,^ pictures are from left to right: USFLynx, Ensign Vasarin, USFDamara, USFGorkon, & USFAhrele The USF Experience in Las Vegas By Fleet Captain Damara Seven Cha'Tavek Take one Commodore, one Fleet Captain, a Captain, a Lieutenant Commander, and an Ensign... mix them all together and put them in Las Vegas, and what do you get? Tons of fun and an "Experience" they'll never forget! On the first weekend in August 1998, some of the USF staff met in Las Vegas. The main objective of the trip was to go to the Star Trek Experience at the Hilton, but it was also a chance for everyone to actually see their on-line friends in person, some of them for the first time. Arriving first on Friday from Sacramento was myself, Fleet Captain Damara Seven Cha'Tavek (Darmok), and tagging along with me was my real-life son who plays Ensign Vasarin on the Sundancer. Next to arrive was Lt. Commander Tom Trekker (Darmok) who came all the way from Delaware! Arriving from Missouri, Commodore Ahrele Johannson (Darmok) rendezvoused with the others at the airport, and the whole group proceeded to their hotel to check in. Once we arrived at the Luxor and oohed and aahed at the incredible Egyptian motif, we discovered that Captain Gorkon (Integrity) had arrived there from San Diego ahead of schedule. Finally, all together, the group wasted no time in going to the Hilton, intending only to inquire about prices and times for the Star Trek Experience. Once there, however, there was no way anyone was going to drag me out of there without actually going on the ride. Luckily, there was no line and we were able to get on almost right away. The ride is aptly named... it truly is an "experience" like no other. I really felt like I had been transported aboard the Enterprise and there were many realistic touches which added to the fun. As we walked down the corridor, real people in Starfleet uniforms walked past us. I even saw an engineer kneeling down in front of an open panel. Next we were escorted to an incredibly realistic bridge, complete with viewscreen, consoles, and red alert klaxons sounding. My only disappointment here is that you're only allowed to stand in one place as a group, and I had hoped to be able to sit in the Captain's .... I mean XO's chair (::winks at Ahrele::). From the bridge, we were whisked to a very exciting shuttle ride and finally delivered safe and sound to DS 9 where we wandered the Promenade spending credits and had a drink at Quark's Bar. There was a brief encounter between Commodore Johannson and a Klingon when she unknowingly incurred his wrath, and he proceeded to glare at her for the entire time we were there.

  • Bajoran Language
    Bajoran Language All Bajoran written languages are based on a series of ideograms; even copies of the Bajoran texts found at ancient archaeological sites share certain root ideograms. Bajoran ideogrammatic symbols are vaguely square shaped, and feature a series of complex, interconnecting swirls. In times past, the symbols were rectangular; modern Bajoran script breaks down words into their components more frequently, thus two modern symbols often correlate to a single ancient word. Bajoran spoken language also consists of many small words for simple concepts, which can combine to produce words representing more complex ideas. There are 25 basic Bajoran language symbols, which form the foundation of all ideograms. Each symbol can be used in any of eight rotations (flipped and rotated each and every way). Bajoran tends to be written in horizontal lines, although it can be written vertically. In the Bajoran alphabet, the analogue of “C” is the fourth letter, the analogue of “E” the seventh. List of Words and Language Components Edit A: Prefix signifying definite article “the”, as in a prime or model example. Aclim: An era of history. Alva: A yellow fruit. The syllabic component “va” translates to “source”, and is found in the names of other foods like Veklava and Kava. Amojan: “The Evil One” (From “A”- “the”, “Mo”- “one”, and “Jan”- “Evil”). Amoran: “The Banishment"”(From “A”- “the”, and “Moran”- “Banishment", itself derived from the syllabic roots for “one” and “aftermath”- essentially, to have become "one", cut off from others). Ara/Arra: “Place”, usually in a spiritual or figurative sense rather than denoting literal location, although as the Bajoran proverb teaches, “the land and the people are one”.

  • October USF PADD
    1 From the Editor Greetings one and all! While we carry over some of the celebratory mood of last month's issue for Star Trek's 45th anniversary, this month's main focus is the man behind it all. Gene Roddenberry. In a more somber reflection, we pay tribute to his genius and imagination, for this month marks 20 years since his death. Would he have imagined his vision to continue on so strongly after he had reached his final frontier? We can't say for certain, but surely he had wished. So, aside from the second part of the Star Trek Culture article, we also have a nice little tribute to “the man”, and even some interesting and perhaps little known facts about him. And since I haven't been able to find anyone that attended the big 45th anniversary Vegas Convention and would be willing to share their experience and perhaps pictures, I decided to take us all back in time to the 30th anniversary with the help of a willing simmer. (But I'm still looking for the scoop on this year!) Plus, we have a few “firsts” in this issue. Namely: the first two official strips from the new comic “Prime Defective”, the first time Chief Squill is handing out his astute Ferengi advice, and the first issue of the Cookbook under a new culinary chef... or is she an alchemist? You could think so, considering what she “cooked” up for her debut. And now... I won't hold you up any more. Enjoy the read! Lori Wanted: Ads Consider advertising for your Sim in the USF PADD All USF hosts are warmly invited to submit GRAPHIC or TEXT ADS to be displayed in various sections of this magazine.

We turn to narrative to explain our own lives – casting ourselves as protagonists, others as secondary characters and antagonists, and the myriad of events that happen to us as a coherent, linear story. Fiction and metaphor are lenses for our collective imagination – a representation of how we see ourselves as a society, and how we see others outside of our culture. In the Western world, nowhere is this view more prominent than in the genre of science fiction. In the fictional interactions between humans and aliens – diplomacy, conflict, oppression, misunderstandings, and cultural sharing – we can see a reflection of our society’s values, its moral prescriptions, and its warnings for the future. Anthropologists, as experts on extracting cultural rules from observation, and picking up on cross-cultural misunderstandings, have long been aware of the human tendency to exaggerate difference between cultures in order to define them as distinct. Thus, an anthropological study of science fiction is crucial for understanding how a society defines itself. In this thesis, I undertake an analysis of the influential science fiction television serial, Star Trek. I seek to answer how the portrayal of specific alien societies in Star Trek inform and reflect the American society’s understanding of both itself and “the other”.
